Aside from one sci-fi blip with his planned adaptation of manga/anime series Cobra, Alexandre Aja seems firmly committed to developing horror-themed properties. Because though Undying Love sounds like it could be a brief side trip into romantic drama, it’s actually Aja looking to get his teeth into a little vampire action, courtesy of the graphic novel.Warner Bros. picked up the rights to Tomm Coker and Daniel Friedman’s Image Comics series last July, intending to turn the genre mash title into a film.Love finds a former soldier falling for a young woman. She turns out to be a member of the fang club, which would scare off many paramours, but our hero decides that he’s going to save her.

It sounds like a reality show pitch: The legendary Facebook investor, PayPal founder, and thorn in the side of college deans everywhere announces what happens when 24 people, picked to live among mentors and innovation experts, stop going to school and start getting real--in business.
One climbed Mount Kilimanjaro. Another started college in third grade. Another opened a business at age 9. And yet another scored 5580 on the SATs (on a total of 5 tests, but still).
Now they're all getting two years of mentoring from a network of tech and entrepreneurial experts and $100,000 to start a business. The benefactor? PayPal founder, early Facebook investor, and Stanford's least favorite alumnus, Peter Thiel. Least favorite because Thiel has been making waves by arguing that college is an overhyped, overpriced bubble, and that the world needs better ways to recognize young talent. It's all been great fodder for debate, but little more.
Until today. Thiel...
